Contacting Authors

Many YA authors have their own web site or social networking page. If you're unable to find contact information for them online, contact their publisher with your request. Selected publisher contact information is available from the Children's Book Council web site.

The Society of Children's Book Writers & Illustrators has an online speaker bureau that you can search by state.
